The Bros

This is a simple little adventure platformer. Arrow keys move, X to jump and Z for special (can be rebound by clicking the menu button in game). There are 8 levels in one world with 4 different power ups, including Mushroom, Fire, Liquid, and Magic. In addition, there are two vehicles in some levels, the Jackhammer and the 'Copter.

Halfway through this submission, I lost all desire to work on it. This is not my first game, and as I continue to sink months into these monsters, I yearn to work with my own ideas rather than someone elses. The Bros can never be 'my' characters, and while I think it's great to parody things to get yourself going into something like this, at some point you have to depart and use your own inspiration to create something. And I don't want to score points and fame just because i'm using ideas that are familiar to people.


Having a non-completed project was stunting my drive to commit to any new ideas, so I forced myself to go back and finish this up. That's why things aren't well polished in some areas, and keep in mind this game was suppose to span 3 worlds, not one. Still, I think the physics are the most forgiving of any Bros game and I think there's something to be enjoyed from it.


So, it is what it is. Hope you guys have fun with it.


Edit: Added in better height from wall jumps and fixed a few glitches.


Edit 2021: This submissions still exists! Huzzah!

It's cool, but 6th level is almost impossible. Also a heads-up for other players, the game fully resets when you beat it.

I really hope someone can mod this game to add more power ups and toad as a playable character and to give it an actual ending pls make that happen this game is so good!!

still love this game. such a charming and fun take on the mario series. at one point i glitched and turned into toad though? thats really weird lol. replayed it again on bluemaxima and came here again to tak about it/ id love to somehow make a mod of it which adds toad as a playable character and actually gives it an ending.
overall wonderful flash game which has aged wonderfully, still a very good challenge, with such a charmingly retro take on the mario series. you can tell its unfinished but it almost gives it its own charm in a way.

Oh I remember playing this game but not the first one (Also the wall jump is really bad)

this is cool
